Really‽ No one?

Let me be very blunt: This is a device for stupid people. Anyone with a fraction of knowledge about telescopes or photography will realize this is a giant hoodwink scheme. You’ll get faaaar superior results using a cheap digital camera, a good long…

The fact that it doesn't compare unfavorable with an Air that is still sold is very impressive, considering the size, power requirements and no fan. Very little software will require hardware that is stronger than the lowest spec that is still in st…

With any kind of brain they are right now deep in the process of rolling their own completely own architecture. Something which is quite easy. And even easier to get at least better than the current standards. Acorn made the ARM core as a small comp…

Looks cheap and poorly designed. Not at all something that fits with an Apple device. I give this 6 months on the marked tops.

This benchmark is very close to some of the current Macs using the same test. Is an ARM transition eminent? Remember how much of a surprise the Intel transition was? It doesn't make sense to tell people about it until the very last moment. Now would…

This looks very unApple like. Way too much bullshit and redundant features. Here is how to do it: - Rectangular controller, same length as an iPhone but less wide. Can be held both horizontally and vertically. - One end is a clickable touch pad an…

Absolute crap! This is just a Super Famicom controller! Where is the analog stick? Who the hell really needs a D-pad these days? D-pads where only invented by Nintendo because they took up very little space in a clamshell Game&Watch and later u…

Remarkable how these three guys actually seems to have split Steves personality between them. Including their looks. That could have both advantages and disadvantages.

"[Microsoft needs to start] focusing on what it's good at" And what is that? I honestly can't think of one thing.

It really is an insult that he is remembered as "the inventor of the mouse". His and his teams work was much, much more important than just mere pointing device. They tested several pointing devices in the 60's (including a knee operated one, that …

Goddammit Steve was much better looking than that bloodless douche! And at least get the facts right, if for nothing else than to show you care. An "indie" flick should choose indie actors, not someone very established like Kutcher. They c…

Can't help but wonder that if the Mac had shipped with a functioning Twiggy drive, if the fortunes would have turned out differently in the early days of the Mac? Almost 900 Kb is a lot of difference compared to the 400 in the finished product. It…
